Top 5% rated guesthouse in our region

Farm visits available on request. We have horses, pigs & chickens.

We’re on clean, tested well water, which is safe to bathe and cook with — but you may notice a faint natural sulfur smell, especially with hot water.

In 2022, we installed a new water softener + carbon filter to manage this.

On June 18, 2025 we added a new component to the water system that seems to have removed the sulfur smell.

We like to be upfront so there are no surprises!

Cozy Cottage

This little cottage has everything one could need for an enjoyable stay in the Finger Lakes region. It is just minutes from Keuka Lake and from Hammondsport, a picturesque village on the lakeshore. Our host was kind enough to recommend a wonderful restaurant (Timberstone Grill).

Great time, great price

This place was exactly what we needed and the price was perfect for our budget. Me and my wife needed a simple, no-to-low frills place to use as base camp for our vacation. Joe was very available for questions and we were very happy with our stay

Wonderful farm, host, lake and town

Wonderful stay. Joe is an excellent host and a great guy. He even gave my 4 kids a tour of his adjacent farm. The town of Hammondsport is also a wonderful hidden gem, and the location of the property gives you great access to the surrounding finger lakes area. The cottage is cozy but very clean and comfortable. We had a blast and hope to return in the future.

Cabin review

The rental and location were great for my son and I coming to visit family. The host was very responsive to all of my message and made sure I had no issues entering upon my arrival. Also was good about shoveling snow paths and porches to make our stay safer.

Great Visit

We had a wonderful visit. The cottage was perfect for the me and my parents. And a great location to the surrounding finger lakes. The property owners were very responsive to any questions and made the check in and out process so easy. They have Satalite TV and Internet which filled in the gaps after dark. Would stay there again in a heart beat.

Great trip!

Wonderful stay with our dog. Great location! We contacted Joe before our trip to ask if we could drop off our boat in the driveway before check in. He got back to us quickly and said no problem. The parking area was great for a boat. The rental was a perfect size for us and our dog. We will definitely want to stay there again!

Our stay

We enjoyed our stay,easy check in and clean Couple of things maybe could be listed differently. Linens included but bring a blanket if you use the pull out couch, and fridge is small. I also didn’t realize no stove, buy did have a hot plate with two burners. Short distance to hammondsport. We would stay again

Relaxing stay

We had a couple of days of rain, but there is much to do in the immediate area, and it's a short distance to Corning. The inside of the cabin is cozy and very clean, with everything you need to make a meal and clean up afterward. The side yard was perfect for games, and the firepit is ideally located in the front yard. Joe and his lovely family brought us over wood and saved us the trouble of getting it from somewhere else, and it was reasonably priced. It was a charming and relaxing stay, I would recommend the property, and we would likely visit again.
